A member asked:
Is it very unlikely for a doctor to mistake uterine cancer for uterine fibroids in an abdominal ultrasound?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Likely the radiologist will recommend a vaginal ultrasound for better images if he (she) could not say for sure if the growth is a fibroma or cancer. In another word, yes, it is unlikely radiologist makes a mistake in reading.
